Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"The Jolliest Term on Record: A Story of School Life" by Angela Brazil is a novel likely written during the early 20th century. This charming tale revolves around the adventures of two schoolgirls, Katrine and Gwethyn Marsden, as they transition from life at home to a boarding school called Aireyholme. The story explores themes of friendship, artistic aspirations, and the ups and downs of school life, particularly as the sisters encounter fellow students and teachers in their new environment. The opening of the story introduces Katrine and Gwethyn in their attic studio at home, where they discuss the peculiar occurrences leading up to their unexpected departure to a boarding school. Their mother reveals that they will be attending Aireyholme for a term while she and their father travel to Australia. The sisters are initially apprehensive about returning to school life, particularly for Katrine who has just left her previous school, but they are intrigued by the prospect of new experiences, especially in an artistic setting. As they embark on their journey, the narrative hints at both the challenges and adventures that await them in their new school, setting the stage for their exploration of a world filled with friendships, rivalries, and artistic endeavors.
